Engines

 There are some different types of engines.

Here we're going to talk a bit about all of them



  • Heat engine: It is an engine that transforms heat into mechanical work and has a hot and a cold source, the larger the difference of temperature between this  sources, the larger the energy produced.



  • Electric motor: It is an engine that uses electrical energy to obtain mechanical energy by the interaction of magnetic fields.


  • Physically powered motor: It is powered by kinetic or potential energy. There are two types of physically powered motors:


  1.   Pneumatic motor: It converts potential energy (compressed air) into mechanical energy through linear or rotatory motion.
  2. Hydraulic motor: It converts hydraulic energy into mechanical energy
